You asked me to close my eyes
To keep my feet firmly on the ground
To visualize my past through a person
That I still loved
You said, "Please recall the first time
That you felt you'd be together"
I knew at that moment as my tears flowed
My longing
Under the tree as our sun rose
Heads and hearts aligned
Reading loud to each other
The mysteries of the east
(Everybody who knows this)
I knew then, that was it
(Everybody who knows)
I knew then
(Everybody who knows this)
I knew then, that was it
(Everybody who knows)
I knew then
Everybody who knows this
Everybody who knows
Everybody who knows this
Everybody who knows
You asked me what I would say
To the young girl living inside me
As a child again, I spoke to myself
And I told her, "It's going to be okay"
